How do they have completely different agendas? You mean the whole liberal/conservative angle? You can't really believe there is any real difference between the two parties other than hot button subjects dealing with minor social issues?

Are you kidding? There is definitely a significant difference between the two parties. Let's take the relevant issue of gun control: Democrats are for it, Republicans are against it. Now, if Sandy Hook was an Obama conspiracy to take away our guns then dont you think FOX News which is Republican and anti-Obama would report these "facts"? Why wouldn't they?

The two party system is a joke and is really only used to divide the population into believing the other side is nuts, when in reality both liberals and conservatives have more in common than they have disagreements. It's a con game.

Name some of these things that liberals and conservatives have in common. It's really annoying when paranoid conspiracy pushers are vague, just be specific if you have facts.

The media is no different. They play to certain demographics for ratings but on issues that push a more neferious agenda they are united. Bascially all broadcast media outlets are controlled and owned by 5 major corporations - Viacom, Aol/Timewarner, Disney, Clear channel, and News Corp

Yes the media is controlled by a few companies but those companies have different agendas. Why would an anti-gun control FOX network be united in the agenda to take away guns?

It's fairly easy for the board of directors to give out orders to the CEO's and editors to push an agenda or to edit out things that they deem "problematic". That doesn't mean ALL content is regulated or all agendas are united, but don't believe that any media that is for profit resembles anything close to independent journalism.

Again, the media has their own agendas but the agendas are not the same. Unless you believe in some nutjob Illuminati shadow government with no factual basis in reality.
